Even though he has been caught, the former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein is still causing trouble. His arrest has thrown up as many questions as it has answers. Top of the list is what should happen to Saddam now, closely followed by calls for information from him about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction(大规模杀伤性武器). He is currently being held by American troops at a secret place. The US says he will stand trial(审判) for his cruel actions during his years in power. This is likely to take place at a court set up two weeks ago by the US-backed Iraqi Governing Council(伊拉克临管会). The council's president Abdul Azizal-Hakim has warned Saddam could be executed(处死) if found guilty by the court. And the US supports this.“I think he ought to receive the worst punishment for what he has done to his people,”said US President George W. Bush, without directly stating that Saddam should be put to death. However, many nations, including Saddam's long time enemy Iran, believe he would receive a fairer trial in an international court. Even Britain, America's closest supporter, said it would not take part in any trial that could lead to Saddam's execution. The UN Security Council(联合国安理会) has yet to make its position clear. But UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan did say that“the UN does not support a death penalty.”Besides waiting for a trial of Saddam, the world wants to see if the US and Britain can find the banned weapons they gave as the reason for the war in Iraq. Asked if Saddam's capture could lead to a breakthrough in the hunt for the weapons of mass destruction, British Prime Minister Tony Blair said,“there's obvious possibility there. But I think we should carry on what we're doing in Iraq”.
50.After the arrest(逮捕) of Saddam, people are most concerned with the question that _____.
A.whether there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq B.where he is held now
C.how he will be punished D.none of the above
51.Which of the following is not true?
A.Saddam will be punished for his cruel actions. B.An international court will be set up.
C.UN does not support a death penalty.
D.Many nations think it is not fair to have the trial in the court set up by the US-backed Iraqi Governing Council.
52.Tony Blair's words implies that _____.
A.he is not sure whether they can find the weapons B.Britain will not take part in trial
C. Both A and B D. Neither A nor B

Often a prize is awarded to just one person, but not always. Sometimes a prize is shared. It may be awarded to two or more people who have worked together to reach a goal. Since the Nobel Prizes are international prizes, scientists, inventors, writers, and diplomats from all countries may receive a prize. Sometimes, two people from countries with different political views may even share a prize. An example of this is the 1973 Peace Prize, which was awarded to Henry Kissinger of the United States and to Le Due Tho of North Vietnam for the Vietnam peace negotiations. It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given. If there is not outstanding achievement in one of the five areas, no prize is given in that area. In 1972, for example, no Nobel peace prize was given.
Someone must decide whether or not to give an award. The process of nominating and choosing Nobel Prize winners have two parts. First, nominations, or recommendations, of people who might deserve a Nobel Prize, are made. The nominations in physics and chemistry are made by the Royal Academy of Science in Stockholm. The nominations in medicine or physiology are made by the Caroline Medical Institute, which is also in Stockholm. The Swedish Academy, along with the French and Spanish Academies, makes nominations in literature. The peace prize nominations are made by a committee of the Norwegian government. Many nominations are made in each area. Nominations from these groups begin the process of choosing the Nobel Prize winners.
The second part of the process of choosing Nobel Prize winners is to decide which of the nominees deserves the award in each area. This decision is made by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm. The Foundation may decide to give the awards to an individual or to several people in each area. Or the Foundation may decide not to give a prize at all in any area.
1. A Nobel Prize is given in the form of ________.
A. a large sum of money
B. a diploma and a gold medal
C. a large amount of money together with a gold medal and a diploma
D. a prize certificate
2. The 1973 Peace Prize was awarded to ________.
A. two persons B. Henry Kissinger
C. Le Due Tho D. two individuals from different countries
3. Sometimes no prize is awarded when ________.
A. there is no remarkable achievement in that area
B. there is no suitable nomination
C. there is a war
D. there is financial shortage
4. The decision of literature prize winner is made by ________.
